Chemical industry

At the same time, the chemical industry is one of the sectors which boast the highest growth rate – it was 30.8 percent in the H1 2017. 

CIS countries and Europe are the biggest consumers of Russian chemical industry products, 39% and 36% accordingly; 13% of exports is accounted for by the Asian-Pacific region, while the Middle East has a share of 6%.

Various plastic products play a special role, such as film and plastic tableware. 

The export of rubber products is becoming increasingly profitable thanks to the rapid evolution of production assets with new technologies and bigger facilities. Isoprene rubber enjoys the highest popularity today, as it is a great substitute for natural rubber and thus can be easily used in the production of tires, conveyor belts, soles and sports gear.

Cleaning substances and detergents, such as soap, shampoo, toothpaste and laundry detergent, are also on the high ground. For example, SPLAT – oral care products – are very well regarded abroad. 

The company exports to 60 countries and has offices in Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Latvia, Turkey, China and Great Britain. Today, SPLAT is successfully advancing in the Chinese market with the help of online shops.
